Random Wax: 2021 Topps Heritage Hanger Box

2021 Heritage:   We'll keep the Jose Altuve thing going this week with a Heritage hanger box.  Altuve was a guy you thought, early in his career, had a good shot to get to 3000 hits early in his career.  He can still do it, especially if he plays late into his 30s.  He turns 33 in a few months and has batted .307 over his career now sitting at 1935 hits.  Feels like 2020 really hurt his chances.  2035 hits would feel like he was in a better position to get there.
Always rooted for Jackie Bradley Jr.  While he provided good defense, he was never consistent at the plate.  A couple of pitchers who anyone would want on the mound for their team.  Big difference is Justin Verlander is still doing it at high level including a Cy Young at age 39 last season.  Amazing.
Nice looking League Leaders inserts.
McMahon is still looking for consistency but has shown he can hit the long ball.  Love World Series highlights.  The Flashbacks are pretty cool as well.
This design is ok but not something I'm excited about.  I'm just not a fan of many of these older designs.  Probably not in the majority in that opinion.
Plenty of In Action inserts in this box as well as star power.  Cutch is a favorite of mine which helped my pull.  Fun box of cards and good way to start off a Friday.
